Question

Which linear function represents the line given by the point-slope equation y + 1 = –3(x – 5)?

Answer 1

y=-3x+14 I hope this helps!

Answer 2

Answer:

$y=-3x+14$, slope intercept form

$3x+y =14$, standard form

Step-by-step explanation:

$y + 1 = -3(x - 5)$

We need to write the given equation in slope intercept form or standard form

slope intercept form is $y=mx+b$

To get slope intercept form , we need to get y alone

$y + 1 = -3(x - 5)$ ( multiply -3 inside the parenthesis )

$y+1=-3x+15$ , subtract 1 on both sides

$y=-3x+14$

Standard form is $Ax + By = C$

To get standard form we keep x term and y term on the left hand side

$y=-3x+14$

Add 3x on both sides

$3x+y =14$
